I enjoyed reading your wonderful "Don't Wait" write. Yes, it is better expressed in person but say what you mean before it is tooooo late. Have a blessed day as you write away..................

So true and such sage advice, Janice, which most people (myself included) don’t follow very often…

I agree with that totally Janice!! I love these two lines with such a powerful message! Say or do it now while the people in your life can actually hear and know it before they leave the world! Debx

Yes, tell those who are dear to us that we love and appreciate them. You made the point in your eye-opening last few words, Janice.
